Portugal have a ridiculously good defensive record (something like 18 clean sheets in their last 24 games). Plus Torres isn't looking match fit for Spain...

2 - 1

0 - 1

Sepp Blatter can take his apology and

it.

Has he ever been seen in the same room with Samaranch or Rogge?

Portugal also has a record of playing some extremely crappy teams amongst those last 24 games.

I say Spain 3 - 1 Portugal

Ronin +1.

Edit: My prediction has accomplished Phase I. On to the penalties in less than 3 minutes.

Ugh. Why did I watch that game.

**Sasaki Kojiro** · 06-29-2010, 17:48

Penalties suck. There has to be a better way.

Do NOTHING throughout the match and win on penalties.

Football. :/

Well I have to admit that I've been EMOtional there yet any glimpses of excitement through the game was Japanese, no ?

Edit: Oh and despite my fandom, I agree on the necessity of penalties. They say "this is it until there is a better one" and shooting out is so.
